In today's video I'm going to show you the whole process of making silicone shells that you can use to create a beautiful mermaid tops (or hide your freediving weights) to achieve a more realistic mermaid look.

First I'm gonna walk you through a process of a super quick and sustainable mould making using polymorph plastic.
Then I'm going to show you a method of colouring dragon skin silicone with mica pigments by Arteza.
We're going to use a marbling technique when casting the shells and glaze them with a clear coat of silicone to finish them off.
